Seeking Volunteers - Rathnir Online, Looking for C++ Coders. (2D MMORPG)
Project name:
Rathnir Online
Brief description:
Rathnir Online is a 2D MMORPG that my team and I have been working on for almost 2 years. The project has been dead for some time due to the lack of a C++ Coder, so I decided to look for one to revive the project.
The game itself is coded in C++. The source was already pre-compiled to emulate a game called "Tibia," but we aren't infringing copyright laws since we use our own graphics and client, and also since the source was not directly take from Tibia itself. Alot of the ingame functions are coded using the LUA and XML scripting languages, and the data is stored on a MySQL database. We basically need a coder so that we can program our own client, and edit the sources more to our own liking. By the time we are ready for testing, we hope to have alot of the original code rewritten to differentiate it from Tibia. We already have a website ready to be edited and whatnot, and we also have game servers that we can use for hosting and testing purposes.
Target aim:
We are planning on releasing the game as free to play, but you will be able to pay for an account upgrade that will unlock new content, items, and quests.
Compensation:
Since the programmer will be doing most of the "hard" work, they will likely recieve a generous portion of the game's income.
Technology:
As stated, we are currently using a pre-compiled source code to run our game, but we would like to be able to expand or completely rewrite the source. Most of the 2D graphics that my team and I have made were created solely using basic programs such as Microsoft Paint. Some of them have been created with Photoshop, but I prefer using MS Paint.
Talent needed:
Mainly all we need is a few C++ Coders to help rewrite the sources. We are hoping for people that have knowledge in C++, and are familiar with MySQL databases and using LUA and XML functions. Knowledge of LUA and XML are not required, but it would be helpful
Team structure:
Currently the team consists of:
Ryan: Team leader, graphic artist, Ideas, LUA scripter. 2 Years.
Nate: C++ Coder (inactive) 4 Years Experience.
Tyler (Me): Graphic Artist, ideas, LUA scripter. 2 Years.
Edward: Storyline writer -
"Somni": Graphic Artist -
Website:
Rathnir.com
Contacts:
You can PM me here or post in this thread.
Previous Work by Team:
Currently, we have an executable server that you can log into to test the graphics, but we need to create our own custom client. You can view the ingame graphics under the photos section of our website.
Feedback:
You can leave any type of feedback, I don't mind.

This is going to be a professionally developed game, not an open tibia server. We won't be handing out a gamemaster position to anyone. Even if we did hand out gamemaster, the only thing they would be able to do would be bug reports, and rule violation reports, mainly a senior tutor.
